As an Asian, I could really relate to Elena, especially when it comes to cultural beliefs. The way the word 'sex' is considered taboo and the emphasis on purity is all too real. Exploring yourself is often seen as shameful. Honestly, the list goes on! I absolutely loved this holiday novella, which explores the challenge of living in a Western culture while trying to hide your true self from your family to avoid disappointing them. Plus, it’s spicy 🥵🥵. My fan cast for Nick is Chad Michael Murray.
